Quoted from lordloss:More recently they have been behind the times. Look at their dinky little phones compared to the new standard large phones people love. Their stock price also dictates how far behind they are, it's way down from the jobs era
What world are you living in now?
A totally clueless statement.
Quoted from Trekkie1978:LE should have a backglass (I can't tell from the pics)
A 3d one.
My thoughts so far:
-Looks good. I like the little touches, the tv, the LCD, the topper, the artwork, etc...
-Layout is ok, nothing that really grabs me, but nothing that turns me off either...very safe and vanilla
-I'm interested to see the spinning disk toy in action. What are all the shots around it? It looks like there might be a shot that leads to a subway there maybe...not sure.
-Crane is of course a rehash, but a great toy, and I always like magnets.
-Price is too high and I won't buy because of that, I don't see anything that justifies the price increases
Can we all stipulate as FACT that the "price is too high" for all versions. That way, you guys don't have to whine and bitch about it in every post.
Again, FACT, prices are too high!
That said, I think it looks awesome, love the artwork and the looks of the layout.
Spinning disk? I don't seem to recall that in BDK? Nor do I seem to recall a similar flow on the PF? Will play VASTLY different.
From what I've seen I'm getting this pin!!! It meets my expectations with a few minor issues.
The HIGH PRICE for the dummies like me that are willing to pay for LIMITED and/or SUPER LIMITED is worth it to me. Get over it.
It will look great right next to my GBLE and TWDLE
And it has an LCD finally for a great theme!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Adios F ing dots.
Quoted from TaTa:Meh...glad I didn't jump on this one. I'll just grab BDK and put Batman66 stickers on it and save myself 6g's!
Quoted from cavalier88z24:I have video if some one wants it pm me your phone number
Not a game play video and im having problens sending it
Looks pretty good to me. I'm not real familiar with the past batman pin so it's like a new game to me. I would totally love to play one but not buying at those prices.
I have a lot of Stern pins, while STLE was the most costly. I think they are better buys in the $5k range, and tougher to justify near 5-figures price.
Also they're hit or miss on code too much for me to take on faith anymore. Fool me twice (but not three times).
Quoted from CrazyLevi:one for the "You ooze, you loose" file....
"Villain" ain't spelled right on the TV.
You have to pay extra to get correct spelling in the SDLE (SUPER DUPER LIMITED EDITION) they are limited to only 5,000 and require a blood contract and your first born child.
Quoted from TaTa:Sorry bro It's just a BDKVE with a LCD...meh
Sorry bro but you need to get your eyes he checked
Quoted from TaTa:Sorry bro It's just a BDKVE with a LCD...meh
It's actually less appealing then the original.
It is amazing that everybody that works at Stern and saw and worked on the pin on a daily basis can't f ing spell right!
Nobody noticed it. Wow
I like what I see. It looks a lot less like the slot machine than I was expecting. The LCD is huge, much bigger than I was thinking they'd put in.
Quoted from TheLaw:It's actually less appealing then the original.
you are so cool man!
Quoted from Rockytop:Look to the left side of the rotating disk. Doesn't it look like the ball drops into a subway or something? I'm looking forward to seeing what all the shots are around the spinning toy.
I think that's just a ball lock that catches balls via a post on a right orbit shot. I have a feeling it will release the balls by rotating and dropping on the magnet below similar to X-Men Pro.
Quoted from iceman44:Can we all stipulate as FACT that the "price is too high" for all versions. That way, you guys don't have to whine and bitch about it in every post.
Again, FACT, prices are too high!
You can't really separate that. The game looks awesome but the price hike is too much compared to what is given. Premium model Ghostbusters is $1000 less than B66. It's always going to be a factor looking at this game. I will enjoy playing it if I ever see one on route though it sounds like there's one less arcade to do so.
spfx,look at the left side,and you will see 5 drop targets,one is already lit!So,magnets again huh? No magna slings??More balls to degauss! I wish they had that Batmobile on the side of our LEs! And are those Chrome side blades, No art blades like GB/PRe?Mezel here we go!!Looks like a comic book on legs,but a keeper for me!!
Quoted from Pinballlew:The stock price is more then double since Steve jobs passed away.
Exactly. He doesn't understand stock splits.
Quoted from iceman44:What world are you living in now?
A totally clueless statement.
I'll admit I was wrong about the stock price, but apple isn't some high tech cutting edge company anymore.
Can someone confirm but I am NOT seeing the LCD tv on the PRE version. If they took that off the PRE I'm gonna be seriously pissed.
Quoted from iceman44:It is amazing that everybody that works at Stern and saw and worked on the pin on a daily basis can't f ing spell right!

To be fair, wasn't "The Typo!" one of the less famous Batman Villains?
Quoted from MikeS:I think that's just a ball lock that catches balls via a post on a right orbit shot. I have a feeling it will release the balls by rotating and dropping on the magnet below similar to X-Men Pro.
You could be right.
Quoted from thundergod76:Can someone confirm but I am NOT seeing the LCD tv on the PRE version. If they took that off the PRE I'm gonna be seriously pissed.
It's on there. It is spun around the back on some of the Premium shots.
Everything mechanical under the glass should be the same on all 3. Unless they are now stripping features for the Premium.....which would be odd.
We need a feature matrix!
Quoted from Maken:Someone needs to reinforc the importance of spelling to Stern, they are loosing their minds.
loosing. Good one.
Quoted from Stones:I hope I get to play this soon. Sounds great in the video Stern just posted.....on a side note: When did Cat woman start wearing a nut cup?
Here people were obsessed with Dick-beard from LotR, now Catwoman is transitioning?
Quoted from hawkmoon:OK,question,i'm not familiar with BDK,so what does that crane do???Anybody???
It just sits there, doesn't move or anything.
Quoted from hawkmoon:OK,question,i'm not familiar with BDK,so what does that crane do???Anybody???
Apparently it steals your money.
Quoted from hawkmoon:OK,question,i'm not familiar with BDK,so what does that crane do???Anybody???
It moves to the diff'rent locations where the inserts are and you hit it...it's a really cool actually.
I like the art...don't like the TV section thing...I liked the drop/up kicker from BDk
Quoted from zucot:Does the le come with a topper?
Yes, but there's an add if you want the interactive beacon that shines on the wall from behind it
HAHAHAHA
just saw the pics
such a cash grab
hate to be that guy but come on this is no where worth the cost
It does look cool and I love the old batmans but come the F on
Quoted from rai:Here people were obsessed with Dick-beard from LotR, now Catwoman is transitioning?
It's a little concerning........
Looks really great. They basically removed the crap from the BDK layout and added some awesome in its place. Second ramp will help immensely and loss of the POTD2 and coffee can is a huge plus. Still, for the prices I was expecting to get my dick knocked in the dirt!! This is basically a regular Stern pro/premium/LE release with inflated pricing and an LCD. Seriously, slap an LCD into MET, TWD, or ST and you have similar value. Looks awesome, but crazily overpriced.
Quoted from iceman44:Can we all stipulate as FACT that the "price is too high" for all versions. That way, you guys don't have to whine and bitch about it in every post.

I agree
Quoted from hawkmoon:Thank you TheLaw! Kinda like the Slimer ,sounds like to me!!
Yes but it works MUCH better than Slimer, and it registers all the time.
Quoted from TheLaw:It moves to the diff'rent locations where the inserts are and you hit it...it's a really cool actually.
I like the art...don't like the TV section thing...I liked the drop/up kicker from BDk
The crane was a very well done toy on TDK. If they had to reuse anything I'm glad they picked that.
